My Will
After making 2 Wills and finally getting the third correct and therefore spending a fair amount of money, I am now satisfied I've done what I needed to do.
I found Martin Roberts approachable and am now awaiting details of Power of Attorney and to see another member of Boyce Hatton regarding my property.
